Kids don't need exercise progressions...🤦‍♂️ They don't need chin up progressions... They don't need split squat progressions... They don't need pushup progressions... They don't need squat progressions... They need to develop coordination... They need to develop balance... They need to develop spatial awareness... They need to develop rhythm... They need to develop locomotor efficiency... They need to develop a variety of force applications... All these need to be developed during the most sensitive time periods between the ages of 5-12 when the nervous system plasticity is at its highest. They need to sprint, race, and chase... They need to hang, climb, and shinny... They need to wrestle, tackle, and be rough and tumble... They need to crawl, dive, and roll... They need skip, hop, and Gallop... They need to kick, catch, and throw... They need to jump on, off and over, things... They need to learn to swim, ride a bike, ski, surf, skateboard, scooter, and skate... They need open spaces, free time, play, recess, and physical education... Most importantly, all this needs to be fun, enjoyable, and engaging so children continue to be active as they enter their adolescent lives. Sounds easy? It's not...Kids have a lot working against them these days. Let's help them as much as possible. #LTAD

Quick little warm up that got their bodies and creativity moving 💕 🪨, 📄 ✂️ cup steal! Line the cups along the center, make 2 teams, play 1v1 rock paper scusoors. Winner brings a cup back to their side! When all the cups are gone, design something creative 😍 @CavalierDrive
